Most TB patients are not admitted in hospitals, nor do they need to be admitted in hospitals.

Most of them are treated on outpatient basis.

That's scary if true then o... Thank God there is cure cos If one person has it out of 13.... With poor hygiene in Nigeria upto to 8 will be infected considering its a airborne communicable diseases

It is fulani that brought tuberculosis and other harmful products through pastoralling and political policies into our holy Land of Biafra. Therefore, this report is an attacks against Amambra indigents.

Briefly...you can catch TB from being in close contact with an active TB case who coughs,sneezes, spits, etc. in your presecence...sending the bacteria airborne (Respiratory TB)

Most Nigerians are immune to TB (A test called the Mantoux test can test for your level of immunity to TB)..but some aren't, and HIV postive people are especially at risk.

Local herbs can't treat it. A course of 4-5 Antibiotics that specifically target TB , and which are taken for 6-9 months can treat it.(the drugs must be taken without fail...to prevent resistant tb)

The kind of TB that comes from cows is caused by M.bovis.

You catch it by drinking unpasteurised milk...which most Ibos don't drink anyways.

The one in humans is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis...which is not linked to cows anyways.

The great state of Anambra will overcome, and will have the unwavering support of well wishers in the region and beyond. Their spirit of overcoming is second to none.

(I am a health worker, and have actually treated TB patients)

1.Most of the TB patients are probably under treatment. And treating TB takes as long as 9-18 months...dependeing on the site of infection.
2.Anambra is populaiton dense....so spread goes a bit easier than in less populaiton dense areas

3.It is not a thing of disgrace. We know the problem...and thankfully we have the drugs and vaccine to deal with the issue.

Look, I am not saying that there is no TB cases in Anambra State but a case in every 13 residents is not possible.

If we are to believe that stat and since that TB is AIRBORNE then hospitals in Anambra State would have been filled up with patients given the number of weddings, funerals and extensive and intensive interaction in the numerous markets in the State.

Tuberculosis is not easily treatable. There is a lot of resistance to most common antibiotics presently.
It is not a disease anyone should joke with.
Children should however be vaccinated against the disease.

If you are that knowledgeable about Tuberculosis..
You should know that being infected with the bacteria is not the same thing as being a Tuberculosis patient.

Well, most people here are immune...which is why we are not seeing a higher number of cases.(Vaccination for tb is mandatory).

Well, speaking as a health worker who has treated tb in many people over the years, it is treatable.

The ones who develop resistance to the disease are those who don't take the specified antibitotics on a regular basis. One who has tb is supposed to take the antibiotics...which are specific for the disease...for 6-9 months (longer if non-respiratory tb). If you stop taking the antibiotics after two months...you run the risk of being resistant.

And resitance means we switch you to second line drugs...a different set of antibiotics.

If you don't take those ones too...and develop resistiance...well, that's when things become tough.

Well the incidence of TB in anambra state won't prevent OR allow secession ...diseases don't influence poltical events like that.

We are in the tropical region...and TB is just one of many diseases that is hammering the tropics. Even in developed countries, TB is still an issue there. The good news is that it is curable....so if the Fulanis brought it as a bioweapon...it ain't working....and if people take their drugs...they won't get weak at all.

6-9 MONTHS course of specific antibiotics will clear it.

Unless you drink milk sold by Fulani herders...which is unpasteruized, and very risky to drink (even up North, many people drink tinned milk)...your chances of catching tb from them are very low.
